Beautiful Melissa Review

I like trying out new products to see how well they work. "Beautiful" is one of those products. Instead of using cleaners, exfoliaters or moisturizers for your skin "Beautiful" uses essential oils.

I have one of those skin types that requires a lot of Acne medicine. The person who said, "acne will get better once you grow up" told a lie. Everyone knows that oil and dirt are the main causes of acne. Throw in a little hormone shift and you will find yourself in pimple making bliss. So when " Beautiful" sent me their product to review I was a little skeptical.

"Beautiful" is considered a "Skin Supplement". It feeds your skin what it needs in order for it to be luminous, beautiful and healthy. You apply it to your face 1-2 times daily. They have both a AM and an PM version. To apply you use 2-3 drops on your fingers and spread over your face in a circular motion, without rubbing in.

The Review:

Since Trusted Health Products sent me a free product to review, I decided to try on "Beautiful" on my very acne prone skin. I went off all my facial care products and acne treatments for a full month to give this one a try.

Day 1: I absolutely loved the smell of "Beautiful". The Am mix is almond , orange, lemon, avocado and olive oils. The PM mix is almond, orange, lemon, evening primrose and apricot oils. It went on super easy and left my skin with a glow. Day 5-6: I had a small break out session mostly on my cheeks. They healed quickly and were not super deep. Day 14: Hormone shift caused an extra large breakout which I'm still working on healing up 16 days later.

Day 30: Since I had given the product a long trial run I decided it was finally time to stop using the product. At the end of the 30 days. My skin is breaking out like crazy and actually is dry and flaky. I have multiple acne scars that I am working on healing. I decided to go back to my old products.

I'm not sure if this is the Detoxification period that was outlined in the product information or just my skin saying stop adding the oils. According to product information:

Please be advised that within the first 30 days of using Beautiful, you may experience a brief blemish breakout. This typically lasts from 1-2 days, possibly up to a week. The botanical oils in Beautiful gently and naturally remove toxins and build up that have accumulated over time from the use of chemical-laden skincare products and cosmetics. These botanical ingredients also help remove the cause behind excessive oil production. If a breakout does occur, this is actually a really good sign, as your skin will be ridding itself of toxins that have built up over time. It’s important not to get discouraged during this brief detoxifying period, because once it ends, your skin will emerge with a more beautiful, young looking, radiant appearance. Results vary for each person. You may wash your face with soap before applying Beautiful; we also recommend that after 30 days you try washing your face with just warm water to see if it removes the dirt without soap.
